Chapter 198: The ancient sages enlighten us about the secrets of Confucianism and Taoism!
Jing’an Hou Mansion
The blood cocoon formed by the white tiger has now turned into a ball of light blue.
Jia Cong used his magical power to move it to the back garden of the marquis’ mansion.
The vision lasted for three hours.
That’s when things changed.
“Sincerity is the way of heaven; thinking about sincerity is the way of man.”
“The way of heaven and earth can be summed up in one word. Since they are not two-faced in their dealings with things, their creations are unpredictable.”
“Love it and you will know its evil; hate it and you will know its good.”
Dozens of phantoms suddenly appeared in the void, standing tall.
They were wearing different clothes, but their faces couldn’t be seen clearly.
Thousands of Confucian and Taoist classics sounded at the same time!
This time it is not just the “Analects of Confucius: Yan Yuan” compiled by the deceased elder of the Kong family.
“Book of Rites”, “Great Learning”, “Doctrine of the Mean”, “Book of History”, “Spring and Autumn Annals”, “Ganshi Xingjing”, “Lingxian” and so on!
It covers almost all Confucian classics.
……
“The will of the ancient saints is manifested!”
In Anping Inn.
Kong Yanjin, who had finally calmed down, stood up again.
He looked at the strange sight above Shenjing City with a face full of jealousy.
Others don’t know the identities of those phantoms.
How could Kong Yanjin, the contemporary Duke of Kong, not know this?
Each of those phantoms represents the will left behind by the sages since the birth of Confucianism and Taoism.
It is also the greatest legacy of Confucianism and Taoism.
“It’s just a fourth-level demon king…”
“How can we inspire the will of the ancient saints to manifest enlightenment…”
Kong Yanjin’s face was full of disbelief, his expression terribly distorted by jealousy.
Such a strange phenomenon could not be triggered even when a great scholar of the fourth realm broke through.
But now it has been attracted by a demon king.
The benefits are hard to describe in words.
“Could it be…”
“The merit of education?”
Then Kong Yanjin was stunned.
Wenpo was shaking violently, and a barely perceptible crack had appeared.
……
Jing’an Hou Mansion
“Ancient saints?”
“The power of rules, no, to be precise…”
“Rules in their original form?”
Jia Cong looked at the strange sight in the sky and was also slightly shocked.
When it comes to understanding the heavens and the earth, no one can compare to the gods.
At this moment, under the gaze of God’s eyes.
Those phantoms were clearly the manifestation of rules.
To be precise, it is a rule created by humans.
It’s still just a prototype.
“Confucianism cultivates the mind…cultivating the mind, so that’s how it is!”
After a little thought, Jia Cong figured out the connection.
Ultimately, it’s all about will!
A master of the Xuanmen Yin God can, with the help of a powerful Yin God and a little magic power, mobilize the power of heaven and earth for his own use.
Often one point of magic power can explode into ten points of power!
Confucian and Taoist scholars also have this ability, which is to inspire the literary energy that permeates between heaven and earth.
Where does this literary spirit come from?
For example, the Confucian thought of the five virtues of “benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness”.
If a Confucian or Taoist practitioner above the fourth realm dies, his literary spirit will dissipate and return to heaven and earth.
Invisibly, one’s own will and thoughts will be spread into the world, forming an existence similar to a faint brand.
Over time, little by little, it adds up to a lot.
Then, rules exclusive to Confucianism and Taoism will be generated.
Although it is still just a prototype, if it continues to develop.
One day the rules will be perfect.
When that day comes, the entire world will be stamped with the imprint of Confucianism and Taoism.
Among all things, Confucianism and Taoism are the most sacred!
“Confucianism and Taoism play a big chess game…”
After figuring out all the details, Jia Cong couldn’t help but be slightly shocked.
This is the highest secret of Confucianism and Taoism, and there should be no more than five people in the world who know about it.
From ancient times to the present, since the emergence of Confucianism and Taoism, no one can tell exactly how many beings above the fourth realm have been born.
However, powerful Confucian and Taoist masters above the fourth realm came one after another, all for the purpose of changing the world.
Using Confucianism and Taoism to replace the rules of heaven and earth! How bold and generous was the person who planned it at the beginning?
If you understand this point, the reason why the white tiger mounted by Jia Cong can cause the rules to appear will naturally become clear.
This is probably because, the more prosperous the Confucian and Taoist system becomes, the more people will practice it.
In the future, there will be more masters of the fourth realm, and the speed of nurturing Confucian and Taoist rules will be faster.
And before that.
Confucianism only exists among human beings.
Jia Cong’s mount, the white tiger, devoured a Wen Po and broke through to become a demon king.
He is the first fourth-level demon in the world who practices Confucianism and Taoism.
This is a qualitative change from zero to one.
A new chapter of Confucianism for the demon race has begun!
Therefore, the rules of Confucianism and Taoism will be manifested and rewards will be given.
……
The sages manifested themselves and recited the scriptures.
Today is a golden opportunity for the scholars in Shenjing City.
Even if it is not directed at yourself, just listening from below will still benefit you greatly.
The city of Shenjing was filled with scenes of scholars entering the country and Confucian scholars making breakthroughs.
Even three great Confucian scholars were born.
“We thank Mr. Hu for the opportunity!”
Scholars are full of ambition and can clearly distinguish between gratitude and resentment.
I don’t know who started it.
The scholars who got the opportunity bowed and expressed their gratitude in the direction of Jing’an Marquis’ Mansion.
Finally, it merged into a sound like a tsunami.
Mr. Hu’s name is famous throughout the capital.
……
Half an hour later, the strange phenomenon of Confucian and Taoist rules finally dissipated.
“Roar!”
A tiger’s roar resounded throughout the capital.
In the sky, instead, there was a huge phantom of a white tiger.
Covering the sky and roaring at the heavens.
After a moment, the white tiger’s shadow also disappeared.
In front of Jia Cong, the white tiger he was riding finally completed its transformation.
“Thank you, Master, for giving me this opportunity!”
Even Dabai himself didn’t expect it.
When he was subdued by Jia Cong that day, Jia Cong promised himself that he would defeat the Demon King one day.
I thought that this “someday” meant hundreds of years, or even two or three hundred years later.
Who can imagine.
It was only a year later, and with the help of many opportunities, he broke through to the realm of demon king.
Not just the Demon King.
With the help of Confucian and Taoist rules, Baihu directly skipped the early stage of Demon King and reached the middle stage of Demon King!
Monsters are unruly and difficult to tame, and it often takes more than a hundred years to tame them into having emotions.
If it were any other mount, it would probably turn against its master the moment it broke through.
But Dabai had followed Jia Cong for a year, and through what he had seen and heard, he knew very well how terrifying Jia Cong was.
The fourth realm is just the starting point.
Not to mention that he had already surrendered sincerely.
The moment he broke through, he knelt down in front of Jia Cong, buried his head in the ground and said gratefully.
“Not bad!”
“Get up!”
Jia Cong nodded approvingly.
The demon king’s true form is already as big as a mountain.
The Dabai in front of Jia Cong was deliberately shrunk in size, otherwise the entire Jing’an Marquis Mansion would not be able to accommodate it.
In addition, the two innate magical powers were also greatly enhanced.
The sages enlighten us, and the rules bless us.
It also awakened many Confucian and Taoist methods.
Combined with innate magical powers and a strong body.
The overall strength definitely exceeds that of an ordinary mid-stage Hongru!
“This great scholar’s treasure is just right for you to protect yourself, and it can also increase your combat power!”
Jia Cong took out a great scholar’s treasure that looked like an inkstone.
The words “Bo Wen” are written on it.
It’s called Bo Wen Inkstone!
It takes the meaning from “Yan Yuan”: “Be well-learned in literature and restrained by etiquette!”
